Mini Printable Chinese Exercise Book

The Mini Chinese Exercise Book is a great tool for people who are serious about learning Chinese. It’s based on the excellent PocketMod that helped me organise my studies during university but it’s specifically tailored for learning Chinese.

What is it?

Simply put it’s a document that you print out onto a piece of paper and then fold into a mini wallet-sized booklet.

The great thing about it is that the pages have been designed with Chinese learners in mind, there are pages for:

New Words

Idioms & Phrases

Writing Drills

Individual Character Profiles

Writing Practice

General Notes

How do I use it?

It’s really up to you. Though the idea is that you keep it in your pocket, or somewhere easily accessible, then when you encounter a new Chinese word or phrase, want to make a note of an idiom that you hear or simply have a few spare minutes to get some writing practice in, you can just pull it out and start writing.

Download and Get Started

The first thing you need to do is download the PDF document (or if you want to create you own version then download the individual pages):

Next you need to fold it, which is arguably the hardest thing to do – but once you’ve folded and created one booklet you’ll be able to make further booklets with ease. Below is a Youtube video by the folks at PocketMod that shows how to fold and cut the page in order to create the booklet.
